According to a 2018 survey, 66% of Americans don’t want to live in “Smart Cities” because of privacy and cybersecurity concerns.

Another downside – “Smart Cities” require countless wireless radiation transmitting devices operating 24/7.  Many Americans object to being involuntarily exposed to harmful radiation.  No safe level of wireless radiation has been determined for children or pregnant women.  American Academy of Pediatrics and other health experts also warn that children are more vulnerable to exposure.

Regardless, several communities in Florida seem to be considering becoming a “Smart Cities.”  Otherwise, this elaborate online document wouldn’t have been created.  It provides all kinds of details including that Bluetooth and wireless WiFi devices transmit even when disconnected (page 22).

The online document also includes that “Smart Cities” require 5G.  American doctors, scientists, engineers, and public advocates have requested a moratorium on 5G.  Even telecom executives won’t say 5G is biologically or environmentally safe.

Slick marketing or not, no one is immune from the dangers posed by “Smart Cities” and 5G.   Opposition, lawsuits (see 1, 2, 3, 4), and warnings (see 1, 2, 3, 4) increase worldwide every day.
